NO REFORMATION, NO HALLELUJAH CHORUS:
"We must, of course, remember Handel who also stood in the same [Reformation] tradition. One naturally thinks of Handel's Messiah (1741), which was in the tradition of the restored Christianity in both its music and its message...The Messiah could only have come forth in a setting where the Bible stood at the center. "
